Novel insights into the study of goblet cell hypersecretion in allergic rhinitis [PDF]
Goblet cell hypersecretion is a hallmark of airway inflammation and is driven by complex neuroimmune regulation involving submucosal glands and goblet cells. Although studies have focused on mast cell degranulation as a critical driver of nasal secretion,

Goblet Cell Loss Linked to NOD2 and Secondary Resection in Crohn’s Disease Is Induced by Dysbiosis and Epithelial MyD88Summary [PDF]
Background & Aims: The role of goblet cells in small intestinal inflammation in Crohn’s disease (CD) is unknown. Polymorphisms of NOD2 confer risk for CD and associate with small intestinal disease location.

R0 Resection for Stage IVc Appendiceal Goblet Cell Adenocarcinoma Diagnosed after Left Adnexectomy: A Case Report [PDF]
The role of surgical resection in stage IV appendiceal goblet cell adenocarcinoma remains unclear. We report a case of a 44-year-old woman who underwent left adnexectomy for an ovarian tumor at another hospital. Pathological examination revealed not only

Goblet Cells and Mucins: Role in Innate Defense in Enteric Infections
Goblet cells reside throughout the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and are responsible for the production and preservation of a protective mucus blanket by synthesizing and secreting high molecular weight glycoproteins known as mucins.

Epigenetic modifier balances Mapk and Wnt signalling in differentiation of goblet and Paneth cells
The histone methyltransferase Mll1 controls intestinal secretory cell fate by promoting Wnt-driven Paneth and restricting Mapk-dependent goblet cell differentiation through regulation of Gata4/6 transcription factors Differentiation and lineage ...

Preclinical mouse model to monitor live Muc5b-producing conjunctival goblet cell density under pharmacological treatments. [PDF]
PURPOSE:Modification of mucous cell density and gel-forming mucin production are established hallmarks of mucosal diseases. Our aim was to develop and validate a mouse model to study live goblet cell density in pathological situations and under ...

Vasoactive intestinal peptide regulates ileal goblet cell production in mice
Innervation of the intestinal mucosa has gained more attention with demonstrations of tuft and enteroendocrine cell innervation. However, the role(s) these fibers play in maintaining the epithelial and mucus barriers are still poorly understood.
